Figure it's worth asking here...

Looking for local sources - more on affordable side not baller side.

Tslot extrusion in 6'+ lengths 10 series imperial or 20 series metric.

And does anyone know of a sign shop that might have hunks of ACP/alucobond they sell from the scrap pile?

I have some 10 or 20 and a lot of hardware, 3 foot lengths though

Thanks it's that 3'/1m lengths that's driving me nuts because i need longer lengths. Was hoping to find a shop that stocked them as it's turning into regular purchases...

Replaced a pair of these before catastrophe.



Who does #2 work for!!!?

I maintain that by these being mounted only down their middles that the leverage the wheels get is what is wrecking mine. But, I recall stating that before and a garage pro in the forum said I was wrong. I think...

[AndyL]

You've got another issue if you keep snapping the #2's. Got damage on the bottom panel (ie bent/creased?) Or big heavy wood door?

These are the first #2's I've replaced. I had to do the #1's in August and see below for the #3's showing stress cracks.
The door is not damaged that I can see and it's not wood but it is 18' x 8' so it's pretty big. *At least, that's what she said...
I think it's aligned reasonably well as I've been keeping a sharp eye on it since the #1's went to shit on me. Actually, "sharp eye" isn't fair to say, as I'm not an expert although I've installed a couple doors over the years.

Shoot me a pm with an overall picture - probably tracks/door out of level. No they should last decades, something's off kilter causing a twist which is killing them off.

Hmmm, okay. I'll find a way within the next couple weeks when vehicles are out.

[The_Penguin]

Cleaned up this nastyness.

[tonytiger55]

Replaced right front light bulb on the Zonda.
The old one was working intermittently when I reconnected it outside of the headlight attachment. I spent a good 40mins re attaching in to the headlight multiple times only to have it not work when I put on the rubber backing. I gave up in the end and used a new light bulb.

That's as bad as I've seen. I thought this was a car forum where everyone has a lot guy to was and maintain their stable of rides?

And the vehicle is less than 2 years old. Worst I've seen as well.

This isn't a car forum.

[The_Rural_Juror]

This isnt even a car.

Unclogged years worth of gunk from the sink. Water would not drain for hours so finally had to do something. Draino/Liquid Plumber did not work at all. Neither did a plunger. It was plugged up with some soft jelly like gunk, and the nastiest smell. Shoved some newspaper down the sink as well just to make sure the pipe was fully cleaned (Youtube hack)

[The_Rural_Juror]

Sir, someone has been pooping in your sink.

[vengie]

In my 2am insomnia moment I thought it was prudent to buy some bobcat urine...

We have had mice continually burrow beneath our stamped concrete patio and a few have even made it into the house...
This spring will be all about mice mitigation... As the snow melted I found one more new hole. Very frustrating.

[ExtraSlow]

Everyone should clean thier clogged sinks.

I had the same thing in mine, people call it bio-slime.

The only think I find that gets rid of it is removing it or drying it out. Chances are it's also in the pipe after the p-trap, if it's still a slow drain try cleaning out that portion too.
